Chapter 48: 48: This mouth sure is impressive
The moment Qin Youxuan found an opening, she quickly crawled up from the bed, and wrapped herself up in the sheets while retreating to the corner of the room. Her eyes were wide with fear, but she was still glaring at the devilish man in front of her.
Ironically, with nothing on her but a single sheet and a pair of deer-like helpless eyes, she showed no aura of any stature. Instead, it made her look even more pitiful.
Compared to Dan Hanjie, her petite body seemed like a kitten.
The contrast between her fair skin and his bronze muscles instantly reminded him how she fell asleep on his chest last night…
His devilish eyes narrowed slightly, a dark light lurking within.
But his heart softened.
He took a step towards her.
“You…don’t come over…” As she held the sheet tightly against her chest, Qin Youxuan backed up against the wall.
She wished she could disappear into the wall.
“Afraid to die?” Dan Hanjie stopped, a smirk on his face.
“Who isn’t afraid to die?!” Qin Youxuan raised her voice, agitated by his condescending look.
After shouting, she saw his eyes darken, she stopped and shrank back.
Regretting her rash words!
“If you’re afraid to die, you should know not to anger me!”
“Are you out of your mind? You’re the one trying to intimidate me into accepting an unfair agreement. Standing up to you means I deserve death? Your grandfather must have bribed a whole lot of courts, huh?”
All the judgments were completely unjust…
“Such a sharp tongue.” Dan Hanjie smirked, not angry but amused. He walked up to her, reached out, and firmly gripped her delicate chin.
The soft touch of her skin was even more pleasing than he had imagined.
Seeing her ball her fists in anger, yet knowing she couldn’t beat him and thus not daring to strike. Hanjie found this amusing.
His lips curled up into a smile. “With your abilities, you’ll never inherit the Qin Group.”
Qin Youxuan was taken aback: “Well, I wouldn’t sell myself to you, either!” This time, it was Dan Hanjie’s turn to be stunned.
His devilish eyes tightened, casting a dangerous gleam. He used more force on her chin, intently staring at the woman before him.
Qin Youxuan silently screamed for help, his grip was hurting her and she was on the verge of crying.
For a moment, neither of them moved.
Just as Qin Youxuan thought her life was over, he suddenly let go and took a step back.
“Then I’ll be waiting to see how you beg me.”
Qin Youxuan didn’t dare to believe that she had escaped death so easily.
It seemed that the outside world’s portrayal of this Big Devil was somewhat exaggerated. He didn’t seem to be as merciless and bloodthirsty…
Hearing the subtle mockery in his voice, Qin Youxuan instinctively wanted to retort, but thought better of it.
What if she angered him again?
Her life was the priority!
When she found her footing, she hopped towards the bathroom, still wrapped in the sheets.
She struggled to move, all the while vigilant of the man, afraid he might reach out his claws…
Just when Miss Qin was finally close to the bathroom door, thinking she was about to find liberation, the man standing still suddenly turned around, without raising his head.
“Oh, I forgot to tell you, I threw out that piece of salty vegetable cloth you were wearing..”
